Ashley Judd has only said that she is considering running for Senate in her home state of Kentucky.

But her potential opponent Mitch McConnell is treating her as a real threat, and he's called in the big guns- conservative strategist Karl Rove!

Rove's American Crossroads group has already made its first ad attacking the Double Jeopardy star. He says:

"We are making fun of her…

This is the opening ad. She’s not going to be able to wait until the screenwriters from California and producers make her look good and prepare the ads and give her lots of lines to memorize so that she can handle these things."

Ashley's rep responded:

"Ashley thanks Senator McConnell, Karl Rove, and their negative allies for all the attention as she considers her future political plans, although a decision hasn’t been made yet."

Ch-ch-check out the video (below) to see the opening volley of what is sure to be a mudslinging massacre.

Clearly Rove and McConnell are NOT worried about looking like bullies on this one!

If she DOES eventually run for Senate: GO TEAM ASHLEY!

I have heard her speak on issues such as advertising, the media, and the entertainment industry, and the blatant hypersexualization of our country's youth by these influential fields; and as well the status of women across the country and in other countries. She is intelligent, well-spoken, and would be a formidable presence in fighting against the "old boys' club," (a group pretty much concerned with only furthering big business, and whore-ifying women and pressuring them into making themselves look "perfect" before they are even considered valid human beings in what is supposed to be a free fucking country.)
We need ya, Ashley.

Basically, what this "mastermind" (more like chauvinistic douchebag) is saying with his quote is that he doesn't feel a woman who has since so far had a career in acting can make it into politics, because apparently all she is capable of doing is memorizing stuff for a show or a movie.
She has her own opinions. She is an intelligent and informed person.
But this asshat sees "woman/actress" and throws out the same kind of ignoramus quote that - if he was 16 and saying it in highschool, instead of in a political ad - would ironically be considered "bullying," given today's crackdown on crap like this.
What a fucking piece of shit.

I am by no means a liberal, however, Karl Rove is a venal self-serving douche bag whose PAC wasted 300 million dollars to try to get ignorant and stupid people elected to office (see the Missouri and Indiana senate races). He thereby made these losers the face of the Republican party. Ashley Judd is an intelligent, well educated and well informed woman. Even though she is very liberal, I would vote for her if it would make Rove and his cronies just go the f### away. BTW has he accepted the fact that the President carried Ohio? (re: Fox election night coverage) . Ugh!

do you really think she is going to give a shit about you or yours?? she dont give a shit bout anything but getting the attention that hollywood wont give her now as she is old and her looks have gone forever..she wants the camers on her still she wants attention that her mother NEVER gave her she wants to pretend that she matters but the truth is that she doesnt matter she is nobody she doent need free birth control as she way too old and she doesnt have any kids as that was the price she paid to be in hollywood to get sucky parts in sucky movies and to hang out with people she thought were her friends that now that dont give a shit for her she hates her mom for never being there her sister has other things to do so there is NOBODY in her life now she is lost and wants to go to washington she needs to buy a little dog like the other old ladies in hollywood and fade away haha

I think Ashley will be in for a bit of a shock when the State Demos will tell her that they don't want her to run because she can't win. All the hillbillies in Eastern KY who voted for JFK RFK and Reagan will "Bless her heart she so pretty, but she ain't too smart'. They will smile and nod and be polite and vote for anyone but her. And if she doesn't support Coal, kiss of death in the whole state. No chance for her in the Commonwealth.

Seeing as how she is a University of Kentucky alum, who supports the school 100% in about everything they do, I think she would do well at getting the typical republican votes in Eastern, KY. That is why Mitch would be nervous. As much money as he pumps into Louisville it is still the liberal area of the state. If she can pull in Eastern, KY and Louisville then he would be in a bit of trouble.

A new Bill Cosby accuser's story of how he allegedly sexually assaulted her after drugging her drink is horrifying.

According to Patricia, -- who decided to keep her last name anonymous -- Bill invited her to a dinner party in 1978 after they met at a conference... a dinner party that ended up just being the two of them:
